I hate it so much. I, unfortunately, only date men and I don’t trust any of them right now.

Jokes aside, this kind of casual misogyny—no longer even shielded with the pretext of “transgressive” humor, but smugly asserted as fact and even science—has become really ubiquitous. Sucks IMO.

If enslaved people were individually granted 3/5 of a vote it would have turned a lot of elections! They were not!

3/5 clause misunderstanding is one of my other pet peeves (alongside misunderstanding what heifer means.) It did not count enslaved people as 3/5 of a person! They were 0/0 of a person and the non-enslaved population of slave states were counted as MORE than 1.0 persons! It’s WORSE!

Yeah the answer isn’t eliminating laws, it’s making the laws better. His example was the 3/5 clause which I am happy to know has been significantly improved in the intervening 250 years.

They think the rule of law means laws and they think the answer is anarchistic community which tells me they have never seen the chore chart in a co-op.

We're defending the rule of law because it provides for predictability and human flourishing. Lacking the rule of law, everything is contingent on power's whims, which is not a good way to live. Denying its importance tells me (a) you're a wrecker and/or (b) you don't understand like anything.

GTFOH they couldn’t figure out how to charge him with article 14 too?

Prosecutors charged Watson under three articles of the Uniform Code of Military
Justice (UCMJ), including the rarely used Article 88, which bars officers from using
"contemptuous words" against the president.

I once had my back to the door & heard a man ask “does anyone Jewish work here” k my horrible coworker said “she does” & pointed at me & it turned out they were from Chabad but I thought I was going to die at work and that’s still not as scary as a celebrity posting on social media about me at work

“Women look slutty at the gym and I’m not allowed to hit on them” is misogynistic, but also - and very relevant to SNL - it’s incredibly overdone and unfunny. Literally on par with “why does my bitch wife keep asking me to take out the trash” jokes.
